Tweet (Akiit.com) In many instances, the Supreme Court’s recent affirmative action ruling upholding the University of Texas’s affirmative action program was overshadowed by a same-day order overturning President Obama’s executive order to ease illegal immigrants’ path to U.S. citizenship. World News Tonight With David Muir, while leading its broadcast with the immigration decision, didn’t even […]

Tweet (Akiit.com) I recently did a “VideoRant” for my website entitled “What if Islamic Terrorists Were White?” (See: mychal-massie.com) I’d like to address that question in a bit more detail. Remember Obama’s behavior when Sgt. James Crowley (who is white) of the Cambridge Police Department, in accordance with competent police procedure, identified Henry Louis Gates […]

Tweet (Akiit.com) After finally getting the endorsement of House Speaker Paul Ryan, R-Wis., and Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., Donald Trump frittered the goodwill away.

Tweet (Akiit.com) I have always had enormous admiration for Congressman John Lewis (D-Ga.) and that admiration increased exponentially when I watched him led dozens of his congressional colleagues to sit-in on the floor of Congress to force a vote on gun control.

Tweet (Akiit.com) Last week the Supreme Court of the United States voted that President Obama exceeded his authority when he granted exemptions from the immigration laws passed by Congress.

Tweet (Akiit.com) The California legislature and Governor Brown now have all the ammunition they need to do what they should have done years ago.
